Excellent keep up the good work and I hope the surgery goes ok.

Wow you've done great. I hope I lose as much as quickly as you. Have you stuck to it 100%?

Hi Firelass I think it'll be a long long time till I hit goal weight. But if i get there I'll support others and will probably need it myself. I'm almost at the end of day 4. I gave in to temptation today and had a piece of toast and some cheese. I felt so guilty after. Let's hope it doesn't...

Thanks everyone. Carlyd88 I'm finding it very hard at the moment. First ttime round iris sole source for 8 weeks with a few blip days and I don't know how I did it. Yes I'm finding the evenings especially hard as I'm not busy at work. Today is day 2 do hopefully after Saturday it'll be easier...

Thanks lin123. Today has been very tough. I'm smelling bread rolls for a fix!!

Hi everyone After starting in 2010, returning to plan in 2012 I'm now back more determined than ever. I'm at my heaviest ever and feel very unfit with it. It's time to do something about it once and for all. I sit and moan about being overweight and do nothing about it. Let's hope this time I'm...

ROAD to nowhere - Talking Heads

Hi everyone Im not really a newbie. I first joined this forum in 2010 but I've failed twice to reach my goal and disappeared in shame. Today I restarted Cambridge Weight Loss and hope to lose some weight and keep it off. I'm actually now a stone heavier than when I started in 2010! I found...

Hello everyone Well it's been nearly 2 years since I was last on here. On Monday I started Sol Source and apart from eating some garlic bread on Monday night I've stuck to it. So hopefully from tomorrow evening I should be in ketosis. Hope everyone is doing well and hopefully I'll be losing...

Hi everyone it's been a while since I last posted and followed any type of CD. I was in a bad place for a while and have almost crawled my way out. Unfortunately I have eaten lots on the way and have put all my lost weight back on !!!!! I am planning to restart this week just need to get weighed...

Hi there my old teamie buddy. It's been a while and looks like you're continuing to loose those pounds. Had a bit of a bad time and came off CD and went back to old habits!! Well the list pounds have returned and so has my lack of confidence. I have decided to restart SS this week and return to...

Hi there old team buddie. :) how you doing. Sounds like we're in a similar boat. I have put all the weight back on also. Totally turned my back on CD and went back to all my old eating habits. Planning to start again in next week changing my counsellor first. Good luck with the move and hope the...

hi guys I am feeling pretty rubbish today. My mood is low, I've been eating like a pig and am so tired and can't be bothered. Is it all the carbs I'm eating. So much rubbish has gone in. I have an interview for a new job later today cause the travelling and short staffed situation is killing...

Sorry to bear you've had a rough last year and hope things are on the up now. Maybe it is too soon to be lowering your Anti De. Are you doing it gradually as a sudden change is not good way to do this. Taking on a very strict weight loss programme as the same time as lowering them is a lot for...

Hi Funky don't worry Hun I think we've all had binge days. Or weeks in my case. Let's start 100% again tomorrow again together what is anti d? I've had 2 puddings today after a huge Sunday roasts and last night went to a BBQ ateoads and had 3 puddings. I am determined to start again tomorrow...

Hi FBS just read through your diary and I think you are an inspiration to people. You seem like a switched on guy and your opinions count so don't disappear. It's a fact you can't please everyone so don't worry about them. I like people that voice their views and opinions rather than those that...

Well done so far Tessie:) it is a difficult diet and as you already know I am not one for remaining 100% all the time. Not sure for SS+ but on SS they don't recommend exercise due to the very low calorie intake. I would seek advice before you OH invests his time on a fitness programme for you ...

Thanks Tessie that is what I'm gonna try and do but not sure why I just feel like a real food binge then start again. I know this will probably result in me not having a weight loss and that will p--- me off even more. So i shall try not to waver any more

LOL no sorry I didn't know that. I actually have an Aunty called Flo short for Florence haha. Funky you hVent gained so that's positive in no time you'll be clocking up them losses:) Well break over back to work

Not sure the answer hence why I'm asking myself sorry. In similar position to you :( I am only supposed to have 3 shakes/soups/bars as i am only 5ft 2 inches but I sometimes need to have 4 as am struggling a bit on 3, especially when at work. CDC said it may slow me down going into ketosis...

Does anyone know if by having 4 shakes instead of 3 ( have to have due to my height) will affect me going into ketosis or take me out of it if already in it:confused:

:D Great loss Tulip. :patback: How's things with OH? I've always fancied doing some voluntary work but what with work, kids and the house never had chance. I've always wanted to work for a womens refuge, The Samaritins or Childline. Maybe when the kids are older. Good to hear about...

Debs 2 lb is more than you were expecting so it is a positive, yes? Funky what is "AF" and good luck with your weigh in. A loss will be good as you have only just gone back on so don't go feeling rubbish if it's not great, next week you'll be back on track :) As for those hunger pains once...

Yes I did re start 100% again last Wednesday after for the previous 4 weeks only managing about 95 - 98 % . I would keep to it for a few days then pick at something and have to start the process of going into ketosis all over again. Already had weakened to a 4th CD meal today . Does anyone...
